Mirror Sky

The contrast between the old structure, with its plaster and ceiling beams, and the Koons-esque furniture in Mirror Sky is striking, even more so in the flesh than on a screen. It’s a bold move, but no less than you’d expect from a flat in the Alda Fendi Foundation. Rather than a traditionally autonomous apartment, here you get the benefits you’d normally associate with a five-star hotel, without losing any independence. There’s a 24/7 reception, a roof terrace, daily cleaning, even the option to choose the pillow best suited to you from a ‘menu’.


Home truths:
*As this is a serviced apartment, if you're after the feeling of a lived-in home, you won't find it here
*Your host owns multiple apartments within this building, so the exact view, furnishings and layout might differ from the photos, but the size and standard will be the same
*Be prepared to stock the kitchen yourself, there aren't many ingredients provided
*The design is very stylish, but not what you'd think of as classically Roman
